I just spent a good chunk of today migrating some services onto new docker containers in Proxmox LXCs.

As I was updating my network diagram, I was struck by just how many services, hosts, and LXCs I’m running, so counted everything up.

  • 116 docker containers
    • Running on 25 docker hosts
    • 50 are the same on each docker host - Watchtower and Portainer agent
  • 38 Proxmox LXCs (19 are docker hosts)
  • 8 physical servers
  • 7 VLANs
  • 5 SSIDs
  • 2 NASes

So, it got me wondering about the size of other people’s homelabs. What are your stats?

    • 3 DL360G8 Esxi (86Ghz/512GB RAM)
    • 1 DL380G8 TrueNAS
    • 1 DL360G7 Veeam
    • Dell n5070 Extended PVE SophosnUTM
    • 48 Port Catalyst rack switch
    • Cisco 2921
    • Fibre Channel / iSCSI

    50+ VMs and containers:

    • VMware ESXi, vCenter, VMware Log Insight, VMware OPS
    • DMVPN to remote locations like a desk switch at work and family member houses
    • Sophos UTM
    • Active Directory for my home computers
    • hybrid sync to MS Entra (Azure Active Directory) with Entra Connect
    • hybrid Exchange on Premise and Exchange online
    • Active Directory for management network
    • Security Onion VMs for IDS
    • Network monitoring like Elastiflow, PRTG
    • Docker, gitlab, OpenSalt / Saltstack
    • Trellix ePO for AV
    • Nessus vuln scanners
    • Team Awareness Kit (TAK) server
    • Active Directory Certificate Services
    • Home media applications

    These things are mostly to maintain familiarity and documentation development. I write off the cost of electricity as continuing education and professional development. More enterprise than some enterprises.

        Most likely some sum of (cores x Ghz) each processor in all servers? While it kind of makes sense, it feels like a much higher clock speed than what I’m used to seeing.

        I have a single quad sock E5-4640 server, I think in terms of me having 4 processors with 8 cores at base 2.4Ghz each; I don’t regularly (or ever, for that matter) think in terms of me having 76.8Ghz.

        360G8s should be single or dual sock E5 v2 processors. I can’t really math right now (insufficient caffeine), but I can’t seem to make the math work, so I’d imagine something that to be an aggregated across all three systems, not individual systems?

      Love it! I’m gonna grab a 32RU rack soon. Got most of my stuff in a small ~14RU wall cabinet right now. I was originally aiming for low power everything - RasPis, etc. But I’ve since bought a couple DL360s, and you just can’t beat the sheer grunt factor, especially when paired with Proxmox.
